Circular Annulus Poiseuille

fullflow.CircularAnnulusPoiseuille

Poiseuille number correlation for circular annuli.

CircularAnnulusPoiseuille computes an approximate Poiseuille number for a circular annulus from its inner and outer diameters. The result can be used by laminar annular duct-flow pressure-loss or friction-factor calculations.
